Re: FBAR Please Help

Fairplay, it seems to be working now. Perhaps because I am stressed I missed it. Mea culpa, mate. This has been a big learning curve for me, and I've learned a ton from this forum over the last...

Re: FBAR Please Help

Thank you. Zero within 250 miles of the Bay Area, unfortunately. Maybe I should move to Florida or somewhere. If you have no contacts in the US you are screwed. I had the same with my greencard. I...

Re: FBAR Please Help

Thanks. Unfortunately my tax preparer is on vacation for the next month, and I only have Whatsapp as I am out the USA for another month myself. Otherwise I could just call around.

Re: FBAR Please Help

I take your point but it is very hard when you don't know what you don't know.

Re: UK state pension and USA social security

The 50.62 total you quote is precisely right. Impressive! I wasn't aware that the pension increased by a set amount each year (6.32). Much appreciation to you and Durham Lad. Thank you.

Re: Can I return to USA for healthcare if I reside in the UK?
